 * The plugin works great and my site is much faster, thank you for your work.
 * However, I have a few questions about the preload option.
 * When I activate the option to preload pages, does the plugin decide on its own,
   at random, which pages it should preload or is the preload only due to the visitor
   who visits a page ?
 * If there are no visitors to the site, is the preload working?
 * I can’t answer it because there are people on my site all the time. So I can’t
   tell the difference between the automatic preload and the pages cached by users.
 * Thank you for your reply

 * The preload is another system. It is not related with user visiting. I recommend
   you to set a cronjob for the preload feature as below.

 * Another question 🙂
 * How is decided which pages are preloaded first? The most recent pages? In alphabetical
   order ?
 * Thanks !

 * I just put 5 stars 🙂
 * There is a lot of traffic on my site, so I can’t tell the difference between 
   automatic page preloading and visitors caching pages while visiting the site.
 * 1 / How can I be sure that the preloading is working correctly?
 * 2 / Where are the automatically preloaded pages stored? In wp-content/cache/all?
 * 3 / I have deactivated “cache systeme” function and activated “preload” function,
   but I do not see any files in the wp-content/cache/all. Is this normal?

 * 1. you can open the preload url via browser. I recommend you to set a cronjob
   as below.

 * 2. yes
 * 3. if the “cache system” is deactivated, wp fastest cache does not work. it must
   be enabled.

 * Ok great thank you for your clear and quick answer !
 * I calculated that in 55 minutes there were 11 preloads of 12 pages. This means
   that there was a preload every 5 minutes, exactly.
 * I do not understand why because in the adjustments I have correctly set a 12 
   pages preloads every 1 minute?

 * I think it is the best way to spread the process over time instead of doing it
   all at once. I recommend you to set the number as 4 and set the cronjob as every
   1 or 2 minutes.

 * Ah ok I understand. If you say it’s the best way to go then I’ll do it!
 * Maybe think about updating the “fault” in the plugin. “…pages every 5 minutes”
   instead of “… pages per minute”
 * Thanks again !

 * the WP Schedule of wp fastest cache works every 5 minutes. it is not related 
   with cron job.
